Nor did I. NHL season begins Oct 4th.
“...I made an active decision not to watch...”
***********************************************
Ditto with our family. Anyone who watches indirectly gives money to the NFL, its downtrodden players and the reveling leftist broadcasters and rewards their vile behavior.

Lord knows, everyone else has.
As an American, I will fight for all people to be able to protest; anything they wish. They have that right to be wrong.
I will stand proudly at the playing of this nation’s anthem, because it is still the bastion of freedom.
What hurts me more, are those who demand that the protestors be fired, or hurt in any way, or forced to do something they do not believe in. It is tantamount to being made to bake a cake.
I hope my fellow Americans see the forest through all the trees.
Rush is absolutely right (what else is new), there isn’t any way that Trump doesn’t win this. Trump is on the side of patriotism, the country, the flag, the national anthem. The NFL has cast its lot with a bunch of America-haters.
Gee Rush you mean when you were stabbed in the back by Goodell and Irsay when you were promised they backed your minority interest in the Rams wasn’t enough to emasculate you?
Not to worry RUSH, there’s still Golf!
After two (maybe three?) years NFL-free, I'm here to assure any of you for whom this boycott will mean a cold-turkey experience, that it's not nearly as difficult a habit to kick as you may be thinking/fearing !

I have similar sentiments as Rush. Too many have died for our died country to watch the NFL.
I never watch ESPN. I could care less about professional sports of any kind. But I am about ready to cut the cord just to deprive ESPN, CNN, and the other basic cable recipients of one more very tiny amount of revenue. If everyone did this, they would go out of business, and the cable industry along with it.
NFL will be sorry they are doing this. Loss of money will hurt them. NFL wants to be a global league playing in London etc.
They will die off. Bu bye!
I’m saddened that Rush feels this way. Why let a few BLM Pukes, in consort with The Enemy Media, push us around and tell us what to do?
They’re WINNING! The End Goal here is to stop the Anthem from being played at ANY sporting event, anywhere. They’ve already managed to get God out of our schools, our government and any public places. Heck, they’ve practically gotten God out of Old Time Religions!
The Enemy Media is promoting this. THEY are the ones giving these losers air time. THEY are the ones trying to push the Socialist agenda!
And guess what? Next week it will be something else! Whichever way the wind blows; whatever promotes the Socialist Agenda will be featured. It’s that way on the TV news 24/7!
IMHO, Rush is wrong on this one.
Rush is right!
Loudon, NH had my attention yesterday...
Formerly avid NFL fan here. I’m surprised at how little I miss watching the game. I wonder what the demographics are here. When I was growing up in the 70’s I watched at least one NFL game every Sunday. How many 15 year olds watch the game today? Do any? How will the NFL replace the fans lost to attrition, setting aside those lost because of politics?
Viewership was down. I wonder how much lower it would’ve been if people didn’t tune in to see who knelt for the pledge and anthem.
I watched my Eagles and Giants. It’s usually high drama and pride. The game was a classic. After all of this protest BS,I began to feel empty and sad. Even though I watched,it very well be the end because I hate the NFL and want them to lose even if that means I walk away from my team. I can’t wait for NHL.
It’s really, really, really, ... important to recognize the fact that ESPN is Disney.
